I have 8.1.rc2 installed and my default terminal emulator echo $TERM rxvt-unicode-256color
The <Backspace> key, the history keys (up/down arrows) as well as the (left/right arrows) are messed up when using the Sage built python. ./sage -python Python 2.7.14 (default, Nov 16 2017, 09:21:42) [GCC 5.4.0] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> sss Pressing <Backspace> 3 times erases the 'sss' but the cursor moves 3 spaces to the right and then the (left/right) arrow keys don't function. Everything works as it should from the Sage prompt and my system python works as expected. If I unset TERM or work in a normal 'xterm' the Sage python functions as expected. The issue seems to be with how the Sage built python interacts with my default terminal emulator. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
